Guatemala, Chiquimula—Nacimientos, 1929–2008 [Parte B]

Project Home Page

This project is a collection of birth records from the Registro Nacional de las Personas, or RENAP, for the department of Chiquimula, in Guatemala. These records, created from 1929 to 2008, are a rich genealogical resource. In addition to the time and place of birth and the names and surnames of the newborn children and their parents, the records often contain information about the parents' ages, birthplaces, occupations, and residences at the time of the birth.
